Tasting notes
The 2013 Gevrey Chambertin Estournelles St Jacques 1er Cru offers blackberry and cranberry leaf on the strict and serious nose. These aromatics demand your respect. The palate is showing plenty of nascent energy with hints of sorbet orange enlivening the finish. I like the backbone and focus here, plenty of coiled up energy and animation on the finish. This is superb.

Bright, full red. Sexy, inviting aromas of raspberry, mocha, smoked meat and sexy oak. Rich, deep and seamless but at the same time juicy and vibrant, with intense purple fruit flavors showing outstanding sappy energy. Best today on the very long, rising finish, which leaves behind notes of cassis, espresso and crushed stone. This fruit was harvested early, at 11.5% potential alcohol, according to Saouma.
